Hortau introduces a complete line of digital, wireless and easy-to-use irrigation management tools using precision soil tension probes for accurate yet amazingly simple water management decision.
Wireless technology systems are rapidly replacing wired systems in about every application, now is the perfect time to upgrade your irrigation management system to 21st century technology. The Hortau wireless irrigation management system transmits data from the field to your computer using entirely wireless devices. Thanks to this innovative technology, it is now possible to easily obtain precise soil measurements from remote areas, thus simplifying the task of irrigation management.
The Hortau irrigation management solution, frequently used in research centers, is the most accurate soil water measurement tool on the market. Its soil tension measurement accuracy has a variation of only ±1%, five times less than common soil tension sensors. Furthermore, Hortau wireless soil tension sensors do not need to be calibrated.
Look at these new technologies and see for yourself how Hortau’s wireless soil tension measurement system can simplify your daily irrigation decisions, bringing you peace of mind and a real return on investment!
The IrrolisTM Sense wireless soil probe family includes autonomous soil tension sensors working with 2 AA batteries. These tension sensors come in three different ranges: 0 to 7 kPa (cbar) for greenhouse vegetable media (rockwool, coco fibre, sawdust, etc.), 0 to 35 kPa (cbar) for nursery and greenhouse horticultural mixes and 0 to 80 kPa (cbar) for field mineral and organic soils. A soil or air temperature sensor can be added to the Irrolis™ Sense soil tension probe for wireless temperature tracking, thus ensuring frost protection at night and heat stress control during the day.
Irrolis™ Com is a family of wireless communication devices for transferring the data gathered by the Irrolis™ Sense wireless soil tension sensors to a computer running the Irrolis™ Irrigation Management Software, where the data logged can be retrieved or displayed. The Irrolis™ Com Field Station is completely autonomous, powered by a battery linked to a solar panel.
Irrolis™ Irrigation Management Software was specially designed for monitoring soil tension and temperature by PC or laptop and is compatible with touch-screen technology. The computer becomes a virtual data collector and can be used to view soil tension and temperature graphs. The software was developed for monitoring multiple zones simultaneously. This user-friendly software provides key information to decision makers, enabling them to manage irrigation effectively and proactively. The Irrolis™ solution boosts productivity and saves time!
